About The Position

The Multi-Craft Technician will safely perform all necessary duties and responsibilities relative to general maintenance and electrical repair of machines, equipment, Powerhouse, buildings and grounds. This role involves troubleshooting, repair, and preventative maintenance of machinery, including constructing, installing, maintaining, and removing various types of machinery and equipment. The technician will also perform machine shop work, tooling, pipefitting, mechanical work, carpentry, sheet metal work, and rigging. Responsibilities extend to environmental systems, including inspections, maintenance, repair, spill containment, cleanup, and recordkeeping. Basic structural welding tasks may be required. The role also includes comprehensive lubrication duties for machines, equipment, vehicles, and buildings, involving oil and grease application, filter servicing, hydraulic unit maintenance, oil sampling, and leak repair. Establishing lubrication routes, understanding proper lubricant application, and maintaining lubrication schedules are key. The technician will also manage centrifuging and filtering operations, report supply needs and unusual conditions, and may drive company vehicles on plant property, handling associated paperwork. Safety and fire prevention assistance, including incipient fire control, is also part of the role. The technician must perform all duties in accordance with ContiTech’s environmental policy and applicable work instructions. Monitoring process and machine parameters during critical belt runs, troubleshooting machine malfunctions using PLC techniques, and improving plant processes through PLC program modifications are essential. This includes troubleshooting AC and DC controls, auditing machine set points and process parameters, verifying calibration of process controllers and recorders, and documenting PLC programs, troubleshooting activities, and audit findings. Electrical repair responsibilities include installing and repairing electrical equipment such as switchgear, motors, starters, switches, and instruments using diagrams and manuals, as well as installing cable rack, cable, conduit, and pulling wire. Maintenance of inside and outside lighting, including various fixture types, and maintaining motors while working safely on voltages up to 480V are also required. The technician is responsible for keeping their work area clean. The position involves working occasionally around heat, dirt, grease, oil, contact with water, and at various heights. It requires a high degree of responsibility for correct analysis and quality work, as improper repair can lead to safety concerns and waste of time and material.
